What helped us a lot was being patient at the plate in that one inning. Against a great pitcher you have to do what you have to do for your team. Take a walk, a hit batter; anyway we can get a runner on.

We took care of district play in the first go round. Now we need to go out and take care of the second round and get in a good position for the playoffs.

The kids get motivated because this is the parish tournament. They think they should be in the top two seeds, no ifs, ands or buts.

She (Lalonde) lost her composure a little bit in the seventh inning. She struggled a little bit. But this shouldn't have been a 5-1 game. We didn't play our best game. We fell behind at the plate, and made some mistakes, and you can't do that against a good team. We kind of fell apart in the last inning. We just didn't have our game.

Ashley is the type of player who can do a lot of different things. I can put Ashley anywhere on the field and I'd feel comfortable doing it. She is just that great of an athlete.

We had our backs to the wall when we didn't take care of business on Tuesday (loss to Morgan City). It was Senior Day and we scored when we had opportunity and they left a few runners on.

Ashley is going to be a fantastic hitter. She has great plate discipline and a great knowledge of the strike zone. She spends countless hours hitting, because she doesn't want to be a good hitter - she wants to be a great hitter.
